There was some shop in FL that had an awful reputation... closed, and then the guy re-opened a new shop with a different name. It MIGHT be Monster... so do a search and see if you can find anything.

I went with bowtie overdrives for my 700r4. I am very satisfied with it.

I have heard that Monster transmissions is hit or miss. Some units are good and some are bad.

Mad dog has a lot of negative reputation and a lot of problems. Look at the link below.
